Go out with the people. Stay open minded, don't hold them in contempt prior to investigation, and maybe your opinion will be shifted.

Plenty of time for staying home alone throughout the rest of your life

i find myself in this position a lot. i would go out tonight because it's much less depressing than being at home and it'll give you some
laughs while you're there

why don't you like them? Because you wish you could be like them? You envy how more everything they are than you? Who are you to judge these people. Maybe you should stay in. You don't deserve friends if that's your worldview.

Alright. This is going to be hard to hear, but it's true.

>My world collapsed
No it didn't. You're still breathing, there's still opportunity for future satisfaction.

>I'm trembling and I'm ugly crying constantly.
That's okay. Breakups hurt, and you're allowed to show it when you're hurt.

>It's so unfair
That's life, not much you can do about it.

Look, if you were my friend, here's what I'd do: I'd head over to your apartment, give you a hug, listen to you moan and whine and bitch for an hour or two, then I'd take you out to get some good food and be with some friends, because that's the solution: you just gotta live. You gotta remember that life is good sometimes, and it's gonna be good again in the future. Look, you just had a bad breakup, you've probably been treating yourself like shit for a few days, and you're stuck in a bad way inside your head, so here's what you do: take a shower, put on some nice clothes, then hit up some friends to go get lunch. Good food and good friends makes everything a little better.

6 months out of a three year relationship

it sucks, we tried really hard to make it work, but I just couldn't recover from all of the damage her consistent lying did.

But now I'm working on myself, lost a lot of weight, and am exploring new career opportunities I wouldn't have been able to if I was still with her.


Really just being selfish and spoiling myself, instead of spoiling her like I used to.

It gets better as it goes man, you gotta put your happiness above anything else, and make sure you see some friends or family at least once a week.

bump...

Women in your league? How are you judging this? If you are 29 then you are or should recognize that you have been transitioning into an age where your occupation/salary, personality, life experience should be a larger part of your attractiveness than just looks.

>>18199953
I agree, but Tinder isn't about "your occupation/salary, personality, life experience," it's about your looks. I would also like to add that a 29 year old trying to find a girlfriend on Tinder is either dumb, naive, or both.

He was just being polite. He was actually thinking Jesus fuck how drunk/was I when I decided it would be a good idea to smash this whale

>>18198775
He wasn't drunk thank god

Like 95% of all women you have incredibly low self esteem and I doubt you are as fat as you think you are. Even if your assessment is correct, he could have just pretended he was asleep while you were getting ready to leave and been thinking to himself, "jesus, can she get dressed any slower? She needs to fucking leave already so I can get up!" But he didn't.

He paid you a very nice compliment that he in no way had to make and had a very easy opportunity not to. The fact that you caught him staring, means that he finds you very attractive despite whatever feelings you have about yourself. You should feel lucky and happy such a good looking guy is really into you.

No. 70 IS FUCKING COLD here.

I'm in florida, 70 is hoodie weather for us

Is it button down shirt cold though?

Going to the aquarium so not strenuous, and a mix of outdoor-indoor.

>>18198740
Not him but I always wear a button down if I'm going out at night and I live in Miami.

>>18198705
Well to answer your question, yes you're gay. Hang around with other gays, it'll make you feel better.

>>18198767

but they seem narcissistic and weird

>>18198705
Stop watching anime and it will go away pretty fast

Flaccid?

Nope, that's fucking tiny. If you ever get a girl in bed with you she'd leave in an instant the moment she saw it.

>>18198589
Ignore trolls, it's fine

>>18198497
what line of work?

You don't.

You phone in and tell him you will not be in.

Unless your boss is a millennial I'd call not text

Ugggh. I fucking hate NY. I travel there for work. Too many god damn people, too much noise, too much everything.

My senses just can't handle it. Pic related is more my speed.

New Yorker here, I could tell you that it's not hard at all to get a job washing dishes at local restaurants. As long as you have a resume ready you should be alright

>>18198322
Do you just have these "bites" on you hands?
What about your back, legs, etc?
Are they in a straight line, or look kinda like a Z or are they all over the place?

>>18198352
Some on my hands and over my body towards my pelvis region and abdominal.

Had an aunt sleeping in my bed so I thought she might have caused the sudden outbreak. But my mom begs to differ.

One spot looks like a Z while others are in random groups.

You may have scabies. RIP

Obviously never have anything to do with each other again. Do you really need /adv/ to point that out?

My swollen blue balls do senpai.
That and I thought she would've caved and sent me something by now to work with.

Girls

Is it better to bide your time with girls you want to date eventually, firstly becoming friends or would you say I would be more successful if I show romantic interest early?

Also, I feel like I have super high standards and I'm not sure how much of a negative factor this is, am I shallow for going for only girls I feel are pretty or do I subconsciously go for girls who I feel are around my level of aesthetics? Yeah stupid question I know but it's messing with my mind right now.

>>18198030
If you want a relationship, show romantic interest but also willingness to take things slow and get to know each other before getting sexual.
If someone treats me like a friend, I treat them like a friend - I see my friends two or three times a month to have a beer and that's it.
If someone flirts with me, talks to me often, is kind to me while getting to know me I'm more willing to take things further.

SEX QUESTIONS

Backstory: met a girl and ended up having sex with her.

She legitimately just laid there and was kinda like.. just there.

I guess that didn't really help me get turned on.

She's super blunt and was saying how I have a great cock size (8 inches , 6.75 inches circumference) but that I suck at having sex.

I told her about how she basically just lay there.

She said she didn't enjoy how I was moving her whole body.


I've never been called bad at sex.

Is it possible that I am bad at sex or do you guys think she just wasn't trying hard enough?

That's how it felt to me.

>I had a gay experience that disgusted me
>pretty sure I'm gay
???

>>18197695
>What do?
Get a girlfriend? I mean, you could continue experimenting to make absolutely sure, but why bother? You're most likely gay and trying stuff like that further will likely produce no new results while being unpleasant. And even on the off chance that you're bi, not knowing that is not really a big loss.

Maybe you just don't like sucking dicks? There are even gay guys who don't like it.

Do you find the male body to be attractive?

>>18196962
>it has little effect on me tbqh
Yeah, that's what I thought for awhile too. You're just not drinking enough.

>>18196962
I've found the most reliable small talk conversations are about food, family, and the weather.

Talk about the restaurant and segue into food:
"Have you been here before?"
"What do you usually get?"
"Have you ever eaten at _____?"
"Food trucks are really taking over aren't they?"
"Why are they so expensive?"
"A Styrofoam box filled with nachos for $10!!!"
"Have you ever had venison/squid/squirrel?"

Ask them about their kids, but keep it generic as to not seem intrusive:
"You have a son/daughter, right?"
"Did they just get spring break?"
"Are they looking forward to summer break/high school/college?"

Everyone loves talking about the weather. Talk about how great/terrible the weather was this week, what it'll be like over the weekend, and how you're looking forward to summer/fall/winter.

>>18196962

stop creating imaginary problems for your self. but when in doubt just bring it back to them.

>so how long have you been working here?
>what position did you start in?
>what kind of promotions did you go through?
>how long did it take to get you to this particular position?

and when in doubt, ask follow up questions, going off on the most inane shit. let them talk themselves out.

There's this girl who I'm super interested in and she's super interested in me but she looks EXACTLY like my last serious girlfriend. I roast people all the time for this sort of thing but at the same time I feel like I'd be missing out not dating her

Come on cute guy from work. Pay some attention to me.

I hate my job and everyone pisses me off.
